V.P. Mike Pence and group had a productive meeting with the Schumer/Pelosi representatives today. Many details of Border Security were discussed. We are now planning a Steel Barrier rather than concrete. It is both stronger & less obtrusive. Good solution, and made in the U.S.A.

The possible concession, which comes days after Trump had floated a barrier of steel rather than a concrete wall

What are these people talking about. Trump has been talking about a steel barrier for a long time with a desire to be able to see through it. The design is a detail. The dems are not opposed to a concrete wall -- they are opposed to a wall.

They are opposed to stopping illegals from entering this country - period.

Trump moving away from his demand that a proposed barrier along the U.S. border with Mexico be a concrete wall.

They shouldn't be that silly. They know better. Trump doesn't care if it's a concrete wall, a steel fence or a moat filled with alligators. We don't either.

I watched a video the other day, in which the YouTuber pointed out that many people, when they are wrong, choose to double down on being wrong. That is what the Democrat/socialists are doing right now, doubling down on their anti-American, anti-national security platform. They do not understand (or care) why they were elected—combo of vote fraud and voter frustration over Republicans who were too timid to do what was expected—and so, they are going full out, mocking and resisting the will of the people.

A simple chain link fence with a V top and barb wire should do the trick! I remember adds for such fences back in the 1950s showing Edmund Hillary trying to get over one using mountain climbing gear, and he could not do it.

But then, that was the 1950s.

With each passing day of the “shutdown” as doomsday fails to arrive, more and more people will come to realize there is a lot of government we really don’t need.

It is the Dems who need to end this early or their myths will be busted.

The Left living in their bubble simply cannot accept that there are a lot of Americans out there who understand the need for a border wall.

To them, it “seems” like Orangeman is casting a Twitter spell on weak-minded people.

The reality is a lot of people are astonished there is actually a politician who is sticking to his guns on this, believes the same thing we do, and not caving as they have always done.
